Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis alters plant gene expression and aphid weight in a tripartite interaction

Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis alters plant gene expression and aphid weight in a tripartite interaction

Mutualistic root associations with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are known to alter interactions with insects aboveground. In this study, we investigated whether root symbiosis with Rhizophagus irregularis modulates alterations in Medicago truncatula that affect pea aphid’s (Acyrthosiphon pisum)...
